TRIUMPH ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT in SPIRITUAL LIFE While desiring to maintain a high scholastic level in accordance with standard college requirements, CBC continues to recognize the paramount importance of spiritual preparation and the necessity of placing young Christians in a training environment in which they will yield to the molding of God ' s will. Accred- ited by the Accrediting Association of Bible Colleges and recognized by the United States Office of Educa- tion, CBC has as the center of its curriculum the Word of God, offering at least sixteen Bible courses. To supplement the Christian ' s training, courses in edu- cation, religious education, music, missions, theol- ogy, foreign language, and many liberal arts are of- fered, with degrees of Biblical Education given. The Graduate School of Missions provides training on a graduate level leading to a degree of Master of Arts in Biblical Education or Bachelor of Divinity.

Present Classroom. . . . and PRESENT The present purpose for the existence of Columbia Bible College is the same purpose which prompted its establishment forty years ago: to train young people to know Him and to make Him known. CBC has developed and grown only because the Lord has en- abled its leaders to keep their eyes on this single goal. Through its interdenominational position, CBC has sought to contribute unity to the Church of Jesus Christ without compromising with or condoning any positions or beliefs which are dishonoring to Him. Since the fall of 1960, CBC has been operating on its new campus, six miles from Columbia. This year the Alumni Association took as its Thanksgiving Prayer Goal$100, 000 toward the construction of the McQuil- kin Memorial Administration building. An identical $100,000 goal for Thanksgiving, 1963, has already been set. Though many buildings which are urgently needed have not yet been constructed, that which we see so far reminds us daily that it is a miracle cam- pus, a triumphal exhibit of God ' s abundant provision.

State fair booth: annual witness to thousands in CHRISTIAN SERVICE Christian service, engaged in weekly by every CBC student, is presently our most ob- vious way of Making Him Known. Those who are the Lord ' s long to tell others of Him, and CS assignments are designed to provide excellent opportunities for just that. Many methods and materials are used, but the mes- sage is always the same: Christ died to pardon sinners and free them from sin for a life of triumph!
